Irish Bishops Launch Vaping Awareness Campaign Amid Increases in Addiction Reports
The Irish Catholic Bishops are set to initiate a campaign addressing the dangers of vaping following a surge in concerns reported to the Irish Bishops Drugs Initiative (IBDI). At their recent conference, bishops discussed the alarming side effects of hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), including severe mental health issues. They emphasized the need for education around vaping, particularly for youth, and highlighted the work of national coordinator Darren Butler. Additionally, they encouraged volunteering for outreach programs supporting vulnerable populations as part of their community service efforts.
